2.3 KiB

1.5.3: Time delayed progress

Rofi 1.5.3 is another bug-fix release in the 1.5 series.

There is one breaking change in the theme naming and there are a few small new features (tweaks) in this release.

Sidebar renamed to mode-switcher

The selection buttons to select between the different modi was still called sidebar a remnant from the past. This has now been renamed to mode-switcher.

Icons in dmenu

Just like in window,drun and script modi you can add icons to the list in dmenu mode.

The syntax is similar to the script modi:

echo -en "Firefox\0icon\x1ffirefox\ngimp\0icon\x1fgimp" | rofi -dmenu -no-config -show-icons

dmenu icons

The entries are separated by a \n newline (normal dmenu behaviour). The extra parameters can be added after a \0 null character, the key and value are separated by a \x1f unit separator character.

Ellipsizing listview entries

If you have very long entries in your view that get ellipsized (cut off at the end indicated by ...) you can now select, at runtime, where they are cut off (start, middle or end).

You cycle through the options with the the alt+. keybinding.

Start:

dmenu ellipsize

Middle:

dmenu ellipsize

End:

dmenu ellipsize
